Jesse Eisenberg portrays Lex Luthor in Batman V. Superman: Dawn of Justice, which is currently filming in Michigan. Director Zack Snyder has been shooting some scenes involving Luthor and LexCorp for the past several days, as has been well documented through set photos taken by fans. Now, some information has cropped up about Luthor's look in the film.
The typically reliable site Batman-News has posted a brief description of Superman's arch nemesis in the movie:
"It's not Eisenberg's typical curly look - it's a bit linger, kind of loose and wavy, and it's dirty blonde. Eisenberg's Luthor has spastic mannerisms, like a 20-something guy that pounds energy drinks all day."
That description is sure to upset some fans who want and expect a traditionally bald Lex Luthor in Dawn of Justice. But Batman-News emphasizes that the scenes in question take place early in the movie, so it's entirely possible that we could still see a bald Lex later in the film. So don't panic just yet that Jesse Eisenberg is portraying a superhero version of Brock Lesnar Guy.
The site also notes through sources that the interior of the LexCorp building is "f*cking awesome. There's a basketball court in the lobby with a giant 30-foot neon LexCorp Industries sign."
An IMDB user named syafiqjabar has also posted a scene description that tracks with both Batman-News' report and some previously reported details about Luthor and LexCorp:
"Lex has a super modern-hip Facebook/Google style office with a basketball court, pinball tables, etc. Everyone looks ultra douchey and has bowties and blazers, etc. Lex is introduced in which he takes a basketball shot, and in the same motion, after draining the shot, turns around and shakes a senator's (?) hand, who is there to greet him. He looks like Kurt Cobain, and is a complete douche."
Finally, Batman-News reports Holly Hunter plays a United States Senator in the movie.
What do you think of these descriptions? Are you surprised this version of Luthor seems so different from the others? Let us know in the comments below.
